Sure, but unless that windows box uses identical hardware, it doesn't
mean anything.

Try jumpering pin 5 and 6 together on the drive to force it into SATA
1 mode, since that seems to be what your motherboard supports and the
drive is SATA II.  You will have to find a jumper from some other HD
though since I don't think it comes with any.
